retardation and little functional language in a special ed.
class. During “prevocational work activities” she sits at a
table with 5 peers and is expected to do repetitive tasks
(e.g., sorting) for a hour. Her teacher is frequently busy
handling materials and dealing students at other tables.
When her teacher is not near by, Shelly slaps Mavis, the
student next to her. Mavis screams and the teacher runs
over to Shelly and scolds her. Aggressive behavior only
occurs when Mavis sits next to Shelly. Other students
have hit Shelly back so she no longer slaps them.
